Poison Granny looked at Baby Zetty in scrutiny and saw that she was old with a hunched back. Her face was filled with wrinkles, and she was seemingly doddering due to old age. Her demeanor did not seem fake at all. However, the way she spoke was extremely clear and sometimes carried a sense of childishness. Even though she was experienced and knowledgeable, she could not be related to any of the famous witch doctors worldwide.
Poison Granny could not help but exclaim, "There’s always someone better than you, indeed.”
Baby Zetty rolled her eyes at her and said with contempt, "This poison of yours isn't something magnificent either. Plus, the method of poisoning isn’t very clever. One who has just a little bit of background in medicine would be able to detoxify it."
Baby Zetty was devaluing Poison Granny’s art of poison as utterly worthless, which was detrimental to Poison Granny's pride. She merely snorted and proceeded to ignore Baby Zetty.
Zayne was deeply grateful to Baby Zetty for saving his life. He started to run toward Baby Zetty eagerly and said respectfully, "Oh my goodness gracious! Granny, please accept my sincerest bow of gratitude. Granny,
your art of healing is absolutely magical. Since you've saved me, my life is now yours. From now on, I, Zayne Severe, will do everything you ask. Your wish is my command."
After saying these words, Zayne knelt in front of Baby Zetty and started to get closer to her while bowing even lower. He scared Baby Zetty so badly that she began to back off slightly.
"Get up right now. It's my duty as a healer to save the dying and heal the wounded. I'm unable to accept your bowing and worship," said Baby Zetty as she panicked.
Jay chuckled and said, "Lady Winter, just stand there and don't move. Since you’ve saved him, not only should he be bowing to you, but he should also be taking a portrait of you to worship in his own home."
Omm...
Baby Zetty started sweating profusely.
However, since Daddy had already said that, Baby Zetty allowed Zayne to make a scene.
Zayne’s little willful act was escalating. He now wanted Baby Zetty to be his grandmother.
"Granny, I felt a sense of familiarity with you at first sight. There’s an indescribable feeling of closeness that we share. How about you take me as your grandson?"
